    I run them over the chrony today while shooting at 300 yds.

    The 7828ssc load was doing 2650.

    And while the 2209 load was just piddling along at 2600 fps, it's shooting pretty well.

    This is a 1.25" 3 shot group at 300 yds.

    It's shooting well mate. Comparable speeds with my 7/08 (2640fps) but I guess you're three inches shorter

    Yes, fire forming new necked up Lapua brass too, may be able to get a bit more speed once fireformed.

    She's a cool little shooter, I like it.
